Yep its only a good thing. 90% effective is pretty high and those who will be vaccinated will help things get to some normality and also those who dont the vaccine will be less likely to catch the virus if a high proportion is vaccinated.
I'm suspicious that they're in that much of a rush to save the world that corners might be cut. And nobody can be sure of the long term effects.

Yep exactly.
I highly doubt the vaccine will be perfect just not possible.
There will be side effects long term question is how severe could those side effects be.

You just have to be careful to assume this will be the cure even for those with conditions and other issues.
Needs proper testing and needs to have stringent measures in place before it ever gets rolled out imo.
Rushing it out half arsed would be very dangerous tbh.

They are ready to roll
And it's likely 4_5 other vaccines will follow.
The gov is taking a cautious approach that assume the efficacy will be lower than Pfizer estimates and so will limit it to high risk groups.
There's room for another botch up here as some argue that targeting people who are spreading the virus is more effective, especially if the efficacy is high.
The gov can't **** this up too, surely?

No it's old gits like me!!!!
Fixed that sentence for you!
There is not a feckin chance in hell the rich and powerful will be first in line to get any untested vaccine without knowing any of the side effects. They will allow the plebs to be done first, then if no problems, get it.

Maybe your right wheelo mate.
Just seems from how everything it set.up they always get what they want before the average Joe.mainly because of money they have at their disposal.
If the vaccine is successful with out any serious side effects don't be surprised with numbers of vaccines dropping over time.
